The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan

Export Case   The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan   2023.04.03   Popular Korean novel Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) has experienced a very magical journey in Taiwan. Before publishing the book in Taiwan, Solo Press (寂寞出版社) had published Please Look After Mom (Changbi) with a relatively serious and heavy topic as well as Dallergut Dream Department Store (Sam & Parkers), a bestselling novel in Korea.   * K-Book Trends Vol. 46 ? Go to the article about Dallergut Dream Department Store’s successful import into Taiwan   Unlike Please Look After Mom, the two books, Dallergut Dream Department Store and Uncanny Convenience Store, are relatively simply-written, talking about things close to our daily lives. Above all, they are so-called “healing novels” with humanistic elements, which support the hearts of readers going through hardships driven by the pandemic. With the publishing experience and ...

Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons

Topic   Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons   2023.03.13   Status of Korean webnovel and webtoon market   Korea’s webnovel and webtoon market has been growing rapidly, representing the “K-content” category. The business has been expanding into other countries as well, such as other Asian countries and the US. Derivative works based on webnovels and webtoons are generating income through various channels. As can be seen in the success of the recently-aired drama “Reborn Rich,” IPs (intellectual property) based on publishing content such as webnovels and webtoons are expanding into other industries such as drama, film, animation, and games, securing the original content with relatively less investment. According to the research conducted by the Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea (KPIPA) and the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), the size of the webnovel market grew from 741.5 billion won in 2020 to 1.85 tril...

So Haru Publisher, which was founded in 2011, saw this as an opportunity, besides that the editors had a great interest in Korean culture.Our first book, So, I Married an Antifan (Terrace Books), was published in 2012. A few months before this book was published, we started promoting it on social media. We partnered up with communities to promote thi...
